Standart issue 16, as ever, treats a varied subject matter through engaging articles, essays, interviews, and artwork. In this issue, we delve as never before into some of the more pressing topics facing our industry.
In our ‘Coffee’ chapter, we continue our series comparing coffee and tea—this time the brewing methods of each, and look at a historically massive producer of tea that is moving into high-quality coffee production, Sri Lanka. It’s often easy to forget that given all the coffee we make, there necessarily exists a lot of coffee waste in the form of grounds; we take a look at how we might best make use of them. Finally, we round out the chapter with an essay on responses to the price crisis, and the baristas lending their voices to a thus far rather marginalized topic.
Our ‘People’ chapter, in which we explore the talented people that make up our industry, is stacked with great stories, including an interview with Canadian Barista Champion Cole Torode, a word or two from two of our favourite baristas as they take us through their daily routines, an article by Ashley Rodriguez exploring freelance life, asking questions, and the experiences that made her who she is today, and much, much more.
In our ‘World’ chapter, we take a look at some of the traditions that make up the experience of drinking coffee in the Balkans, then skip over to Austin, Texas for a reflection on exactly what conspired to make the city the coffee mecca it is today. To round it out, we are then treated to a rich and delicately wrought rumination on a recent origin trip to the land of gesha.
作者簡介：
本刊確信，以精緻的紙張和印刷技術可以傳達出對咖啡的熱愛。Standart意即Stand Art，本刊對咖啡文化的印刷版雜誌是從這個概念所創建。當時的想法是要發揚咖啡的獨特個性與咖啡的人真正的想法在紙面上，去創造一個品質。藉此，想貫徹一種理想，藉由閱讀和論壇把咖啡文化落實在生活當中。這樣才是生活，因為我們的生活被自己的“標準”制式化了，所以我們要推廣「非標準」讓百家爭鳴。
